Region
Un lugar topográfico. Region abarca los superficies de Objects, los lugares imaginarios y GeographicAreas. Note que una Region es el único tipo de Object en la que se puede ubicarse. También, no es una subclase de SelfConnectedObject desde que algunas Regions, como un archipiélago, tienen parts que no están connected con cada uno.
Relationships      
Parents Object Corresponds roughly to the class of ordinary objects. Examples include normal physical objects, geographical regions, and locations of Processes, the complement of Objects in the Physical class. In a 4D ontology, an Object is something whose spatiotemporal extent is thought of as dividing into spatial parts roughly parallel to the time-axis.
Children AirportStagingAreaAn AirportStagingArea is a designated area where equipment can be staged prior to the arrival or departure of an aircraft.[Wikipedia]
 AssemblyStationAn AssemblyStation is a StationaryArtifact in Manufacture (ing) where individual parts are combined or attached to the final product in a specific order.
 AtmosphereAtmosphere is a Mixture of gases surrounding any celestial object that has a gravitational field strong enough to prevent the gases from escaping.
 DiningAreaa DiningArea refers to a Region, either Outdoors or Indoors, that is intended for Eating
 EducationalCampusAn EducationalCampus is the land on which a college or University and related institutional buildings are situated.[Wikipedia]
 FacilityA Facility is a place for doing something, or a place that facilitates an activity.[Wikipedia]
 FlowRegionFlowRegion is a class of things whose boundaries are relatively stable but whose constitutive material is continuously moving through the region itself and being replaced by other, similar material. Each FlowRegion is constituted by a stream of matter moving as a whole. A FlowRegion may be liquid or gaseous. A wind may be considered as a Process or as a FlowRegion, similarly an OceanCurrent or a WaterWave. The motion process associated with a FlowRegion F is denoted by (FlowFn F). Note that certain properties belong to the FlowRegion itself (e.g., mass, length, volume, temperature, and speed or velocity of the region moving as a whole), while other properties of interest belong to the Motion of its constitutive stuff (e.g., velocity, direction). The motion of a FlowRegion as a whole (e.g., JetStream moves within the atmosphere) is distinguished from the motion of the pieces of stuff constituting the FlowRegion. See FlowFn and FlowRegionFn.
 GeographicAreaA geographic location, generally having definite boundaries. Note that this differs from its immediate superclass Region in that a GeographicArea is a three-dimensional Region of the earth. Accordingly, all astronomical objects other than earth and all one-dimensional and two-dimensional Regions are not classed under GeographicArea.
 HoleRegionA hole is an immaterial body located at the surface of an Object. Since every HoleRegion is ontologically dependent on its host (i.e., the object in which it is a hole), being a HoleRegion is defined as being a hole in something. Note that two HoleRegions may occupy the same region, or part of the same region, without sharing any parts. Any two hosts of a hole have a common proper part that entirely hosts the hole. A common host of two holes hosts all parts of the sum of those holes. Any object that includes the host of a hole is a host of that hole, unless its parts also include parts of that very hole. Overlapping holes have overlapping hosts. No hole is atomic. HoleRegions are connected with their hosts. No hole can have a proper part that is externally connected with exactly the same things as the hole itself.
 HydrophilicSideThe class of hydrophilic sides of lipid bilayers.
 HydrophobicSideThe class of hydrophobic sides of lipid bilayers.
 IndoorsAny Region which is enclosed by a Building.
 KitchenAreaa KitchenArea refers to a Region, either Outdoors or Indoors, that is intended for Cooking
 LatitudeLatitude is the class of Regions, associated with areas on the Earth's surface, which are parallels measured in PlaneAngleDegrees from the Equator.
 LineInSpaceLineInSpace is a Region.Any LineInSpace contains at least two PointInSpace (points in space). If we have two LineInSpace instances and they each have two PointInSpace in common, then they are the same line. If two LineInSpaces have the relation parallel then there does not exist any PointInSpace that is part of both lines.
 LongitudeLongitude is the class of Regions, associated with areas on the Earth's surface, which are meridians measured in PlaneAngleDegrees from the PrimeMeridian through GreenwichEnglandUK.
 MagneticFieldRegion around a magnet or moving charged particle where the force of magnetism acts.
 MilitaryBaseA MilitaryBase is a facility directly owned and operated by or for the military or one of its branches that shelters military equipment and personnel, and facilitates training and operations.[1] A military base always provides accommodations for one or more units, but it may also be used as a command center, training ground or proving ground.[Wikipedia]
 MultimodalTransitPointMultimodalTransitPoint is facility that allows travelers to and freight to easily transition between different modes of transportation. This can include rail, road, air and water transitway.
 OutdoorsAny Region which is not enclosed by a Building or part of a Building.
 ParkingRegionA ParkingRegion is a Region where TransportationDevice is kept temporarily
 PatioPatio refers to an Region adjoining a building, usually Paved, that is used for outdoor activities
 PerimeterAreaA PerimeterArea is a region that extends outward from a boundary with another region, surrounding or partially surrounding it, but which is not part of that other region. See BorderFn and PerimeterAreaFn.
 PlaneInSpacePlaneInSpace is a Region. It is an infite plane where any pair of infinite LineInSpaces that are in the PlaneInSpace must share a single point or be parallel and not equal.
 PlayAreaPlayArea refers to a Region where children engage in recreational activities
 PointInSpacePointInSpace is a Region.
 RealEstateLand, including all the natural resources and permanent buildings on it.
 RoadA path along which vehicles travel. It is typically, although not necessarily, paved and intended for cars.
 SittingAreaSittingArea refers to a Region, either Indoor (like a Living Room) or Outdoor (like a Garden sitting area) where people normally sit and entertain guests
 SpaceRegionThe class of all Regions which are not GeographicAreas.
 TransitwayTransitway is the broadest class of regions which may be passed through as a path in instances of Translocation. Transitway includes land, air, and sea regions, and it includes both natural and artificial transitways.
 UnderwaterRegionA Region that is under the surface of some Water.
